Q:
A) 2 hours | B) 8 hours |
C) 6 hours | D) 4 hours |
Answer: B) 8 hours
Explanation:
Explanation:
Efficiency of Inlet pipe A = 4.16%
Efficiency of Inlet pipe B = 5.83%
Therefore, Efficiency of A and B together = 100 %
Now, if the efficiency of outlet pipe be x% then in 10 hours the capacity of tank which will be filled = 10 * (10 - x)
Now, since this amount of water is being emptied by 'C' at x% per hour, then
=> x = 8
Therefore, in 10 hours 20% tank is filled only. Hence, the remaining 80% of the capacity will be filled by pipes A and B in 80/10 = 8 hours
